Chia Gel

Hi, I would like to know how many tablespoons of chia gel are recommended to eat per day.

Answer

Hi Marga,

I can tell you how much I've eaten in a day, but it has varied over time. You can get an idea but to really know how much you should take, you'll have to try it to see what works best for you.

I started out putting two tablespoons of chia gel in my breakfast protein drink ever morning. That was it for the day.

At one time I was mixing two or three tablespoons of the chia gel in my protein drink three times a day. I was really busy and didn't want to take time to fix three meals a day. I wasn't trying to lose weight, but I did. I give a lot more insight about this at Overweight Chia Tips.

Another example… I was only eating two tablespoons of chia gel in my breakfast drink and then only one tablespoon of the chia gel with my lunch. Just go to Chia Gel for more details

Comments for Chia Gel

I like the way you communicate. I came here looking for information about how much Chia to take to get the "daily does" of omega three and learned there is no specific requirement. I have been using 4 tablespoons a day to cover protein needs and omega 3... and am going to cut this way way down - and save some money too (:. I found this article which fits with my feeling that less protein rather than more is better for me...
